Planes

We had an overcast and rainy few days last week.  We took the opportunity to go see Planes 3D.  This was only the second movie Max and Claire have been to, the first one being Frozen.  I was little unsure about them wearing the 3D glasses.  Max did great and wore them the whole time, sat still and really enjoyed the movie.  Claire did well, but got restless at time and fell asleep the last 20 minutes.
Ugh..went to upload some cute pics of them in their glasses, but it's not in my photo stream? It's in my album.  This is the second time I've started a post and not had the picture to go with it.  :(
So here are two of my favorite that are on there!


Little mommy with her twins!

All boy! Loves his cars!

Lately

So, it's been a while since I posted.  Just enjoying the days of summer!  Last week we went to a splash park.  The kids loved it and the best part was that it was free!  It's nice to change things up.  Hopefully we can go back this week.

We went to my Aunt's pool this weekend.  Max and Claire were in the pool for over two hours!  They basically had the pool to themselves and loved every minute.  Max even went off the diving board multiple times.  I would catch him, then he would swim to the side!  After the first few he started doing air ninja kicks!

They ate up all the attention this weekend.  All of my mom's sisters were in town and showered them with attention.  Claire hung with all the women.  There's something about being the first grandkids!

Claire has started to play hair dresser.  She loves to fix my hair then take pics of it!

OH... They have finally started going to bed without me laying down with them.  This is HUGE!  There were some nights I would lay down with them for an hour before they fell asleep.  All thanks to my Mother-in-law for getting it started and giving me the push I needed!

They each have a folder and in the morning they put a sticker if they slept by themselves!  Stickers are gone and folder is full!

Lucky 7

7 is a lucky number in the Fredrick house!  39 years ago, Justin, my best friend, my hubs, my baby daddy, my everything was born! 07.07.75.  We were married seven years ago on 07.07.07!

We celebrated this past week in Riveria Maya, Mexico - the same resort we went to on our honeymoon (just realized the room we stayed in ended in 7!)  This trip we shared with two other couples - the same two we went to Mexico with last summer!  Our four full days were amazing and so relaxing!  We were so lucky.  We had reserved a swim up suite at the main resort, but were upgraded to the casita suites.  This is exactly where we were on our honeymoon.  We pretty much spent our time at our swim up pool bar, the beach, eating and drinking.  The food there is AMAZING! Everything there is AMAZING!  I haven't uploaded pics from the big camera, but here are some from my phone.


Just arrived to Cancun!

Toes in the Sand

Two weeks ago we went to Holden Beach for the weekend to celebrate Father's Day and birthdays.
Max and Claire were so excited to play in the sand and they loved the waves!


Max has been getting the worst rashes when he plays at the beach.  We ended up putting his pj shorts on, hoping less sand would get in.
My neighbor gave me a tip yesterday.  She puts diaper cream that has a lot of zinc on her son's inner thighs.  Says it works like a charm! Any other tips?

They also got to try sparklers for the first time! Thanks, Aunt Darcy!
